For those new to skip bins, deciding which size to order can be a little confusing. The size you order needs to be suitable to hold all of your waste so that you don’t waste your time and money ordering skip bins  which are too small.

There are many occasions which call for a skip bin, most common are house moves, renovations and garden redesigns. When you’re moving house, you may find that you’re affected by all three!

House moves create a lot of rubbish; there’s always more than you might imagine to get rid of. Often, it’s just too much for your general waste collection and who’s got time for driving to and from the local dump in the middle of a house move?

Similarly, renovations create a huge amount of waste. Have you ever pulled out an old kitchen or bathroom? Or re-tiled a bathroom? What do you do with all that junk?

Skip bins are the perfect solution but again, which size will be the best for your needs? Let’s look at the different sizes of  Skip Bins

What size skip bins do Hero Equipment offer?

2m3: This is a small skip, some would call it a “mini skip bin” or a “mini skip”. This size of skip bin is ideal for a big garden clear-up or a household clear-out. It would also be suitable for a small bathroom renovation…just the right size to hold an old sink, tiles and even the lavatory! This size is equivalent to 3 trailers.

3m3: This is a little larger and would be ideal for slightly bigger jobs such as disposing of an old tree which you’ve dug out or perhaps a small kitchen renovation. This size is equivalent to over 4 trailers.

4m3: Equivelant to 6 trailers, this is a great all-rounder!

At Hero Equipment we also offer larger skip bins, these are great for big renovations.
